Glenlockhart Cottage – Exceptional Long-Term Let in a Secluded Edinburgh Setting

Situated at the end of a private lane within a highly sought-after conservation area, Glenlockhart Cottage offers a rare opportunity to rent a beautifully restored historic home in one of Edinburgh’s most desirable residential locations. This 160-year-old detached cottage, originally part of the Glenlockhart Estate, combines period charm with contemporary luxury and comfort.

The property is presented in immaculate condition throughout and has been thoughtfully furnished and equipped to a high standard, making it ideal for discerning tenants seeking a peaceful, long-term residence.

Set within generous, mature gardens bordered by established trees, the cottage enjoys a high degree of privacy and tranquillity. It adjoins the scenic Craiglockhart Hills nature reserve—35 acres of open green space offering walking trails and panoramic views across the city—providing the perfect setting for outdoor relaxation and recreation.

Despite its peaceful, semi-rural setting, the property is located just 2.5 miles from Edinburgh’s city centre. Excellent transport links ensure easy access to the city’s extensive amenities, including cultural attractions, shopping, restaurants, and professional services. The location offers the ideal balance between countryside living and urban convenience.

Accommodation comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms, a spacious and elegantly furnished living area, a fully equipped kitchen, and a modern bathroom. The property is well-suited to professionals, couples, or small families seeking a long-term home in a secure and serene environment.

Edinburgh is widely recognised as one of the most vibrant and beautiful cities in the world, with a rich heritage, excellent schools, and a thriving cultural scene. Glenlockhart Cottage offers tenants the chance to enjoy all the city has to offer, from a unique and peaceful base.

Available for long-term let. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the quality and setting of this exceptional property.
